When we hooked up with the Ocho on Monday about his plans for the next two weeks, he indicated that he has no physical problems that are going to prevent him from being ready for his stint at the June 15-17 mandatory minicamp. The club has also apparently been told he’s fine following his tweet that said he didn’t dance in the Dancing With the Stars finale because he got hurt lifting weights.

“Same time as last year. I get into Cincinnati June 12,” Ochocinco said. “I start the new show next week and I’ll be in the week after that. Just like last year. I’ll be ready when we get on the field.”

The Ocho arrived last year on June 9 and participated in two voluntary workouts before the mandatory. He’s delayed this year because of his cable TV dating show that he says is going to take about 10 days to shoot.
